I FILL UP THE RV AT GAS STATION THAT'S CLOSE TO HOME SO UNIT IS STORED WITH A FULL TANK. WHEN I PULLED UP TO THE HOUSE TO UNPACK UNIT FROM TRIP,I FOUND THAT FUEL WAS POURING OUT FROM GAS TANK FUEL FILLER TUBE. I EXAMINED THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE I FOUND THAT THE ROUTING OF THE FUEL FILLER TUBE HAS THE RUBBER HOSE RUBBING AGAINST THE REAR SPRING MOUNT AND THAT IT HAD CUT A SLICE INTO THE HOSE. I HAD A NEW TUBE MADE FOR ME TO DIFFERENT SPEC'S THAT PUTS A STEEL SECTION OF TUBING IN THE CLOSE QUARTERS THAT MAY RUB AND HAVE STRAPPED IT DOWN TO THE SPRING MOUNT WITH A RUBBER COVERED CLAMP AND I CUT BACK THE SLICED RUBBER FUEL FILLER HOSE .I HAVE KEPT THE OLD PARTS.(EDIT)YOU DO NOT HAVE THE PROPER MODEL TYPE FOR ME TO CHOSE. I USED TRAIL LITE B+ AS IT WAS THE CLOSEST NAME TO MY UNIT. IT IS A TRAIL LIGHT 24 FT CLASS A UNIT. OK DON'T LAUGH BECAUSE ITS SHORT,HIS NICKNAME IS STUBBY. *TR
1 of 1 complaints, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
